Katniss remains in the tree for a while when she spots a pair of eyes staring at her from a nearby tree. The youngest tribute, Rue, sticks out her hand and points to something on a branch near Katniss. Rue disappears. When Katniss looks at the place where the girl pointed she is shocked. In the dark days, when District 13 rebelled , they created a type of bug called a trackerjacker.

Trackerjackers would attack you at the slickest provocation and would sting you. Where ever they stung you a large boil would appear, it would be green and would itch incredibly. The trackerjackers got their name because they would track you down until you died, and those who survived them would have terrible hallucinations. Katniss got out a pocket knife and started to cut the branch. The careers were asleep and the trackerjackers were woozy because of the smoke issued from the fire.

Once the branch was cut only a few of the trackerjackers had seen Katniss. She got stung only a few times, but those down below, where the nest fell, were being attacked in swarms. Once the trackerjackers had chased the careers off, Katniss came down from the tree. She took a golden bow and a sheath of arrows from one girl that the trackerjackers had killed and sat to catch her breath.

She started having horrible hallucinations, but then finally woke up. She started a fire and cooked some meat. While the meat was cooking she heard a noise. She whipped her head around and saw the tip of a small foot. They agreed on being allies. Rue treated the trackerjacker stings that Katniss had gotten and gave her some berries.

Katniss gave Rue a leg of an animal she had killed to eat. This was more food than Rue was used to seeing, and she was very thankful. They later decided to try to take out the careers. The careers had many talents and had lots of food.

They decided on taking out their food supply. They had a plan. Katniss would go to the site that the careers were staying. Meanwhile, Rue would light a fire at one point, then she would run to another and light that fire, and then another, to lead the careers away from their site.

Katniss would get to the food and light if ablaze. Katniss later finds out that there are land mines surrounding the food. She takes out an arrow and shoots a bag of apples, hoping that they will fall and set off enough land mines to catch the food on fire. She succeeds in catching the food on fire, but the sound of the explosion deafens one of her ears and she is knocked onto her back.

She immediately hears the careers returning. They are yelling, one of them says that he will kill whoever did this to them. Then she goes to find Rue. She finds that Rue had been killed and she kills the tribute who killed her. She puts flowers around Rue and sings her a song that Rue had taught her until she passes. Katniss later goes about the arena looking for Peeta. She comes to a rocky place that she has never encountered.

When she takes a step further down the path, she hears Peeta. She looks around immediately, but then realizes that it was he that she had stepped on. When he is uncovered she finds out that he used his short alliance with the careers to get info and keep her safe. Katniss sees that Peeta has been injured and has blood poisoning. She tends to him with the little knowledge she has on herbal remedies. He is taken by surprise finding that she has gotten presents from sponsors for he had gotten none.

One day, all of the tributes are offered a chance to get what they need and that two tributes could win, only if they were in the same district though. Katniss is told not to go by Peeta who says that it will be too unsafe, for all of the tributes will be in one place. Katniss uses some sleep medicine from a sponsor on Peeta and she goes to get what Peeta needed, something to cure his blood poisoning. She sees a tiny little backpack and gets it. Peeta is not happy that she druged him, but he is still happy for the medicine that will save his life.

Katniss hunts while Peeta gathered berries. When Katniss return she looks at what he had gathered. There is a number of organizations trying to solve the problem and many solutions suggested by economists, philosophers and politicians. He presented a model of society, where people donate all extra money they have money spent on luxury to those in need.

However, a will to be better, to have more is in the human nature, so without an opportunity to compete and proper motivation to work more there will be a societal collapse. The data showed that the first image that pops into their heads when hearing the word poverty is revolved around extreme poverty.

Most described it as starving kids in Africa, living with their families in poorly conditioned homes, barely surviving. There are on average 52, deaths in the US each year. Required drug screenings would help lower the use of drugs. If people are truly concerned about getting the help they need, welfare, than they need to be serious enough to get help from drugs. However, not everybody agrees with this point of view.

Animals and plants are living creature like humans and people should protect them no matter what. If animals and plants are endangered people should spend money to help them, after all they are useful to us and people should have conscience that blame them if they let these species die without even try to help them. Government should stimulate the people to protect endangered. Even though it was not as severe as the Great Depression, it still dealt a heavy blow to our nation in general.

The reason I am here talking about child poverty is so that we can work together as a nation to help decrease the rise of child poverty and make the future of our nation even brighter and stronger by starting from our children. But first, let us all look at some of the impacts child poverty has on our nation.

First, it reflects badly on the government for being unable to prevent the child poverty rates from increasing and becoming the second worst of the developed nations. Another detrimental aspect of the U.
